How to start investing in Japanese IPOs

Three steps

First, open an account with a broker. Second, enter the lottery for a listing you want. Third, complete the purchase if you win.

That is genuinely all there is to it. The complications people run into are about timing and deadlines rather than the process itself.

Start with the broker

You can only apply for a listing through a broker that is underwriting it, so the account has to come first. Which broker you choose changes your odds, because each one runs its own draw under its own rules.

Comparing them on this site takes a couple of minutes, and you can open more accounts later. Most people end up holding several.

Nothing here is investment advice. Shares can and do open below their offer price.
